After plugging in your phone, you can pull down from the top (where the settings toggles are) and select "Connected as a media device, touch for other USB options". Select "Camera PTP". In Windows Explorer you'll now see the phone just like it was a camera (it'll even have a camera icon). Right...

Re: Verizon Galaxy S III First Impressions/Reviews Went from 4S to S3. Not a fanboy of either, but my objective comparison of both shows that each phone has it's strengths/weaknesses. Seat of the pants use of both phones shows that the 4S is every bit as fast as the S3. Overall, it'll open...

Iphone 5 is on its way! :)

Re: WiFi losing connection at random, needing toggle to reconnect For kicks, turn off "n" and connect via 802.11g. I had this problem with my Droid X and after trying everything I could think of, turning off n worked. I think I had to run this way for a little while until they updated the...

I agree that it'll be good to look at reviews of the North America models as they release, but given the difference in radio technologies, network infrastructure, etc. between the carriers, I wouldn't put too much into the radio evaluations unless you're using the same carrier. I'd like to...

Yeah, if you can live with the Droid X that long, you really can't be concerned with having the "best thing". I've had two phones since my Droid X and still feel behind the curve.

The Bionic is not obsolete on release. It's not a compelling enough jump for me from my Dx, but it's at the head of the class if you're in the market for a V smartphone. If there ever was a phone that was obsolete on release, it was the Storm 2. Yet you bought one. :eek:

This happened to the demo unit I was playing with in the V store. I browsed a few websites and then data just stopped. It showed a 3G connection (no 4G in that area). I left the store wondering if this might affect become an issue for Biionic owners.

Re: First Impressions: Not Impressed Glad to hear the comparison to Dx. I agree that the Dx has just gotten better with time to the point where the phone is now remarkably fast. The phone was relatively fast and had no show stopping bugs when it released, but the updates over the past year...

For those with N routers, before you play around too much with the security, just try setting your router to "802.11g only". After a lot of trial and error, this worked for me.

This is just a guess, but I've experienced the same thing in my home when I'm in rooms that are away from the router. When I'm close to the router or in the same room, it seems that the connection has been dependable. Could it be a signal issue? Are you guys having this problem when you're in...

You can return you GC for a refund if you buy the phone at Verizon.
